In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this clinical trial is to assess the effectiveness of an intervention (combination of behavioural recommendations and technical measures) in reducing personal exposure to heat and air pollution and related health effects in pregnant women. The main questions it aims to answer are: * Does the intervention (combination of behavioral recommendations for heat mitigation) reduce personal ambient temperature exposure, measured using a wearable device (iButton)? * Does the intervention (combination of behavioral recommendations for air pollution mitigation and use of indoor air cleaners) reduce indoor exposure to air pollution, measured using indoor air quality sensors (Purple Air)? * Does the intervention (combination of behavioral recommendations for heat mitigation) reduce sleep difficulties experienced by pregnant women, measured using the Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index?
